Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

410 Favoring Boys

At this moment, the old man said, “Although I’m old, my mind is still clear. Although I’m weak, I can still walk. During this period of time, I’ve seen everything that happened in the Li family and remember it in my heart. I’m good at reading people and am sharper than you.”

Everyone looked at him. After all, the old man had run the Li family for decades. To be able to let the Li family develop steadily, his wisdom and methods were not inferior to theirs. Therefore, his words were still very convincing.

The old man continued, “Xiaoran is low-key and honest. He’s not someone who likes to show off. Therefore, he doesn’t have to lie to you. Tingfeng, that Boss Guo won’t help you get rich for no reason. After all, you’re not close to him. Unless he can obtain greater benefits from you. What benefits are those? Money? Status? Or life?”

Li Tingfeng had entered a state of madness. He could not listen to anything the old man said. He said, “Dad, I know you won’t believe me no matter what I say. When I get rich, you’ll know that my luck has changed and I’ve met a benefactor.”

However, the eldest slowly regained his senses.

“Li Tingfeng, Dad is right. Don’t get into someone else’s trap. When the time comes, you’ll regret it.”

While they were discussing business, Li Ze’en curled up indifferently in the corner and dozed off.

When her stepmother saw Li Ze’en, she suppressed the disdain in her eyes and interrupted the men’s conversation. “Ze’en, are you still staying here?”

Li Ze’en opened her eyes and looked at her grandmother and grandfather timidly. Then, her gaze landed on Li Tingfeng and she said softly, “I don’t have money.”

Li Tingfeng glared at the woman and blamed her for embarrassing him.

He berated the woman, “Hurry up and get money for Ze’en. Let Ze’en leave the Li family and rent a house outside.”

Her stepmother turned and went into the house. Not long after. She came out and threw a wad of money at Ze’en. “Ze’en, here’s ten thousand. Take it and find a better house.”

Ze’en’s gaze landed miserably on Madam, but Madam turned her head away, not daring to look at her.

After all, if she had to choose between Li Ze’en and Li Zeyu, she would naturally choose Li Zeyu.

Li Ze’en suppressed the sadness in her eyes and looked at Li Tingfeng. She smiled sadly. “They said that when Dad brings in a stepmother, he in turn becomes a stepfather. But my friends’ stepfather treats them as his own. As for my biological father…” Her eyes turned red. She did not say the rest.

Instead, she stood up silently and walked towards Madam’s room. Not long after, she dragged her luggage out. This time, she did not bid farewell to Li Tingfeng and left.

“Ze’en!” Old Master Li called out to her.

Li Ze’en looked back at Old Master Li and smiled sadly. “I’m sorry. I’m no longer related to Li Tingfeng, so Old Master Li, forgive me for not being able to call you Grandpa.”

Li Tingfeng was shocked and humiliated.

“Ze’en. Do you have to?”

Li Ze’en suddenly scattered the money in her hand in the air. A gorgeous smile appeared in her eyes. It was a smile of rebirth.

“After I cut ties with you, nothing I wear, use, or wear was bought with your money. In the future, your life and death have nothing to do with me.”

Li Tingfeng was furious. “Didn’t I just ask you to find a house? Do you have to say this in a fit of anger??”

Li Ze’en smiled and said, “You chose Li Zeyu today and gave up on Li Ze’en. And choices have always been two-way. From today onwards, I will also choose to cut ties with you.”

Old Master Li saw how immense the conflict was between the father and daughter and coughed in agitation.

“Ze’en. Don’t go. Your father doesn’t want you. Grandpa still wants you. Since you’re my granddaughter, I won’t see you on the streets.”

Li Ze’en looked at the old man with tears in her eyes.

The old man said to Li Zeyu guiltily, “Li Zeyu, I’m sorry. This family is Ze’en’s last haven. I can’t let Ze’en lose this last haven.”

Zeyu quickly nodded. “Grandpa, I understand.”

Li Ze’en threw herself into Old Master Li’s arms and cried, “Grandpa, you love me the most.”

Old Master Li said, “Butler, go and see where there’s an empty courtyard. Clean it up and let Ze’en move in.”

“Yes.”

Because of Old Master Li’s full protection, Ze’en stayed in this house.

However, her relationship with Li Tingfeng had fallen to rock bottom.

As for Li Zeyu, he wanted to move out. However, Li Tingfeng scolded him sternly, “Zeyu, stay here quietly. In the future, Dad’s family business will be handed over to you.”

Although Li Zeyu had good morals, he was a little weak and did not dare to resist his rough father. He agreed helplessly.

Li Tingfeng’s blatant favoritism towards Li Zeyu was a huge blow to Li Ze’en. Her desire to take revenge on Li Tingfeng became even stronger.

She even imagined Li Tingfeng kneeling at her feet and begging for mercy. She imagined Li Tingfeng slapping himself and kneeling down to apologize to her.

She thought she was going crazy.

She told Qiao An about her tortured heart.

At the Heavenly Imperial Garden, Qiao An sighed repeatedly as she read the message from Ze’en and saw the pain in her words.

Huo Xiaoran put down the book in his hand and looked at Qiao An worriedly. “Honey, what’s wrong?”

Qiao An said, “If I don’t help Ze’en, she might go crazy.”

Huo Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, “Her biological father is so heartless to her. Ze’en is indeed very hurt.”

Qiao An said, “That’s why I want to help her get back what’s hers.”

Huo Xiaoran asked, “How?”

Qiao An smiled slyly. “I have my ways.”

Then, she sighed sadly. “I’m just afraid that it won’t be easy to end this mess.”

Huo Xiaoran also smiled. “Go ahead. Hubby will help you clean up the mess.”

Qiao An quickly gave Ze’en a second brilliant plan.

At the Li family villa, Ze’en was sick.

Her good friend, Miao Lan, came to the Li family villa to see her. After Miao Lan and Ze’en were locked in the room for a while, Miao Lan left. However, she did not leave directly through the back door. Instead, she took a detour to the courtyard where Li Tingfeng and Third Madam lived.

At dusk, Li Tingfeng and his new wife sat in the pavilion in the courtyard. Miao Lan wore scholarly clothes and gold-rimmed glasses and came to the pavilion.
